Fitch Ratings Assigns BB Corporate Credit Rating to Adecoagro
Fitch Ratings has assigned a 'BB' corporate credit rating and stable outlook to Adecoagro S.A. (NYSE: AGRO), recognizing the company's strong financial profile, disciplined capital allocation strategy, and enhanced business diversification. The upgrade follows Adecoagro’s acquisition of Profertil, which nearly doubled its consolidated EBITDA and cash flow generation by adding a leading fertilizers business to its portfolio. The rating reflects Fitch's confidence in Adecoagro's ability to maintain prudent leverage levels with net debt expected to decline further due to higher earnings. The company benefits from diversified funding sources, access to capital markets and bank financing, as well as strong shareholder support that enhances financial flexibility.
